[codex] Provider vault secrets UX (#6381)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents that need scoped, auditable access
to secrets
> - Hosted and external deployments need provider vault configuration
without exposing secret values in Paperclip metadata
> - AWS Secrets Manager vault setup previously required too much manual
operator knowledge
> - Provider vault discovery and removal belong together as an
independent secrets-management improvement
> - This pull request adds AWS provider vault discovery/prefill plus
vault removal flows
> - The benefit is a safer operator path for configuring external secret
storage before higher-level cloud workflows depend on it

## What Changed

- Added shared validators/types for AWS provider vault discovery
payloads and safe provider metadata.
- Implemented AWS provider vault discovery preview on the server.
- Added provider vault removal service/route behavior.
- Added Secrets page UI for discovery prefill, removal messaging, and
related rendering coverage.
- Added Storybook provider-vault fixtures and captured screenshots for
the new UX states.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/secret.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/aws-secrets-manager-provider.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/secrets-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Secrets.render.test.tsx`
- Result: 4 files passed, 1 embedded Postgres-backed file skipped on
this host because local Postgres init was unavailable.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/Secrets.render.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- Storybook screenshot capture against `Product/Secrets` on
`http://127.0.0.1:60381/iframe.html?id=product-secrets--secrets-inventory&viewMode=story&globals=theme:dark`

## Risks

- Secret provider metadata handling must remain non-sensitive;
validators reject credential-bearing Vault URLs and sensitive AWS
discovery keys.
- AWS discovery depends on deployment credentials being configured
correctly outside Paperclip-managed company secrets.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent with local shell/git/tool use.
Exact hosted model ID and context-window size are not exposed by the
local Paperclip adapter runtime.
